Idleweiss isn't a very good name... People will mix it up all the time pronouncing it the way it looks...

But I guess if they're insistent... "Idleweiss Hooker" or "Idleweiss, Mr."

idleweiss isn't a good name in my opinion but if you want to keep it i think you should leave it at idleweiss, it's already a obscure name already.

what's wrong with just idleweiss?

Anybody see "That think you do" where the manager changed the name of the band from the Oneders to the Wonders?

Change it to Idle Vice.

That's like a bad habit that doesn't go away.

Hmmm.. i just looked the word up on dictionary.com:

no idleweiss... but edelweiss (pronounced the same) means

"An alpine plant (Leontopodium alpinum), native to Europe and having leaves covered with whitish down and small flower heads surrounded by conspicuous whitish bracts."

^ I like that idea.

But if they really want the same word, I was also thinking to just shorten it to "Idleweiss". There's really no need for more than that.

Who's Idlewild?

I always wanted to start a band called Chowder. :drool:

Manly Pandas.

That is a good point about Idlewild, I hadn't thought of that. A lot of bands have similar names to each other, though.
